YOUNGSTERS at a Lodge Park school spent three days having an arty party with a visiting artist.

Year 3 children at Oak Hill First School worked with professional artist Nicky Dupays to create eight translucent collages for the library windows.

In the project, funded with a grant from Worcestershire County Council, each window was inspired by a different climatic region or landscape and included under the sea, a rainforest, a polar region and a desert.

One Year 3 pupil said: "It's been pretty amazing using different things like old telephone wires, the insides of glue sticks and 'fluff' to make these collages."
